Watch: Gov. Ron DeSantis calls the Biden administration the 'Brandon administration'

Did this just happen in Florida?

Wait, did DeSantis really call it the "Brandon Administration"?

DeSantis went on to explain the origin of the “Let’s go, Brandon” chant as it “exposes the dishonesty of these corporate reporters and what they do every day. They try to lie. So now you see it”:

“So this chant has taken on a life of its own because it exposes the dishonesty of these corporate reporters and what they do every day. They try to lie. So now you see it," DeSantis said. https://t.co/lc0d6tiJSM pic.twitter.com/rc1meLEtum

DeSantis also took a shot at Dr. Anthony Fauci:

“A recession is when your neighbor loses his job; a depression is when you lose yours; a recovery is when Dr. Fauci loses his.”
